"The Jedi, have failed. What possessed them to let such rampant evil take over the galaxy, I do not know. I do know however, that they cannot be depended on; too rapt into their own meditations, they are unable to see the suffering of the people of the galaxy. And, should they ever rise up, they are cut down by the Sith, leaving them scattered and weak. They have even gone as far as to pervert their own philosophy, spouting that they cannot fight, because it is their duty to keep the peace. Peace?! What Peace! They look at the paltry few planets they own, and think they have made a difference! Wake up Jedi! The meager systems you control is not the galaxy! A few million peaceful people, compared to the hundred millions that are still under Sith rule!?
